3rd Biggest Tree on Earth - Kings Canyon National Park - Part I
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- I'm in Kings Canyon National Park! Kings Canyon is in the southern end of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California and is just north of Sequoia National Park.
I check out the Indian grinding stones in Azalea Campground. Then I head over to the 3rd largest tree on earth. The Grant Grove is a grove of giant Sequoia trees that was once it's own national park known as General Grant National Park until 1940 when it was included in Kings Canyon National Park.
Please make sure to watch part 2!

I'm currently camped at Azalea Campground in Kings Canyon National Park. This is a really nice campground that is first-come-first-serve in the off season. It is reservation only from the end of May to the beginning of September. The majority of the campground was blocked off during the off season so there were only about 25-30 spots available.

There are giant sequoias in England that Capt. Cook brought over from there !
Prehistoric looking tree, brings forth visions
of dinosaurs once roaming earth. 🦖
Well, Sequoia ancestors were around when dinasours roamed the earth. I can imagine a giant dinasour scratching itself against a giant Sequoia!
I love your channel!!
Thank you. I really want to shed my land locked home.
Yah, you’re back. Your videos are so well done and good information.
Whoo, Bex is back! Thank you for the amazing videos that you always create.
Those trees are beyond awesome. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us, take care.
Another beautiful video! Thank you! Visiting the giant Sequoia trees is on our bucket list once we launch. ~ Edie
Bex, you have some wonderful, educational and beautiful videos.. thank you.
I have a bear box, but I just can't open the dang thing! (I guess it works! Lol🐻). I visited that park as a young boy & it was like a wonderland. Highly recommended!
Thank you Bex!🤠
Thank you for the bear box reminder. We camp in a trailer, so don’t have food outside, but yes, let’s keep the bears alive! The grinding holes reminds me of Indian Grinding Rock State Park - awesome place!
Love, love, love hearing the birds singing in the background.
Great time to be there not so over run by the crowds. Video was so masterfully done Bex.
Something to be in awe of; those giant trees are magnificent and incredible we must take care of and protect these treasures. I couldn't find "Part Two" did I miss something what did you title it? Seems like you were lucky to get to camp there?
Part II is scheduled for tomorrow morning! Thought I would release them 24 hours apart. :-)
🌲Beautiful up there! Thanks for taking us along😊👍🙌☮️❤️🌟
Thanks for taking us along. A beautiful video.
Another great video. I love all the background information that you give us. It's very entertaining. Looking forward to part 2.
wow, Bex you explore some awesome places! Love this journey, thanks for sharing. Be well 🙋♀️🐾🐾💙
Thanks for posting this video Bex. The Redwoods seem bigger than I remember. But I was only 5yrs old at the time. (1960) I do recall the bears at Kings Canyon, Sequoia and Yosemite. This was before there were bear boxes and most people were tent camping. As long as the food wasn't in the tent we were good to go. Liked the Stellars Jay also.
These are Giant Sequoia. Different from Redwood trees. Redwoods grow tall, Sequoia will continue to grow outward and the tops will fall off. Sequoia do not die of old age. They just topple over.
@@BexCatherder Well I just learned something new today! Thx Bex!
That was great think don't think would ever get there but I opened the united States to me. God bless America .and you keep u safe .
Funny. We were here about the same time in May. We reserved a spot further up the road in Sequoia for a couple nights, but didn’t luck out in Azalea to extend our stay. This is the first Park I remember camping at in 1960 bears and all. No bear boxes or resistant trash cans then. They came rummaging during the night…
Love your videos, Bex, so beautiful, funny, and informative. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures!
Those trees are magnificent.
Hi, I love your videos stunning places . I just rafting the cataract canyon for 4 days outside of Moab so I’ve been watching all your Utah videos again so cool!!! I appreciate your time and effort 😎
Great Video Bex... I got to visit about 3 years ago the same places !!
Incredible!! Thank you so much for this video.
Omg. You are in my backyard. I grew up and still live about one hour away from the park. Have fun.
Fantastic trees, great video.
Good morning from Tennessee. Great video. Beautiful trees. Have a great day.
I’ve camped there many times…one of my favorite places. The trees are amazing, I hope to get back there someday😀
Yes I enjoy hearing the birds and the sights and scenes. I wish there was smell aviation. I would love to smell the air around the waterfalls. It was hazy at times. Do you smell any of the wild fire smoke?
Wild! Thanks for sharing!
Hello there. I just came across your channel today, and was so excited to see a couple of your videos. It was so pleasing to watch that I subscribed to your channel. You're so natural so down to earth and I enjoy watching you as you show us the things you have explored. I grew up in the White mountains of Arizona along the mogollon rim in a little town called lakeside. As a kid I would go hiking up in the woods above the house through the ponderosa pines with relatives and Friends. Watching you really brought back some memories of my childhood. I now live in the state of Wisconsin. Keep up the good work I enjoy watching you very much. 😊👍
Wonderful video❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you 🙏🏻
Beautiful ☮️
Love ur purple eyeglass frames. They look good on you! They're prob blue like ur shirt but prob change color in different light. OMG that tree! Those trees!! Wow!!
Thank you✝️
Beautiful!
So I watched them in reverse order, but it doesn't really matter; I'd love this park if you showed it on a tricycle. Really beautiful filmography of a fantastic place. Thanks to your video, I may have changed my fall vacation plans. After Labor Day when it will be uncrowded.
Great video, once again. You just get better and better. Thanks for sharing your new adventure with us.
Outstanding video and information you have inspired me to get out and start seeing our great natural beauty getting ready today actually to go camping at a few national parks in Western Pennsylvania. Thank you for your videos and the time and work that goes into making them God bless you.
I have been watching you since the beginning and you are doing great. Your channel has grown a lot in the last year and your techie powers have grown so much ! Keep up the good work and thank you 🌺
I have a book to suggest….”The Wild Trees” by Richard Preston….you will learn more about the coast redwoods than you ever thought possible. The author became what I would described as being obsessed with climbing redwood trees and his story and experiences are fascinating! Really good read. Oh I forgot ….this was a wonderful episode. Thankyou.
Sounds like a wonderful book. These trees are Giant Sequoia. Different from Redwood trees. Redwood trees grow taller but Sequoia continue to grow outward and are much bigger in terms of the amount of wood inside.
Great video! I had never heard of this park! Kings Canyon is gorgeous!
Have fun and take care and take it easy and enjoy it
Backwards today 😨 watched second then first ,,.still great bex ,,so cool keep up the best vidios on earth!!👍😍😍💃
Hey Bex, do you study for your videos ahead of time or are you just a genius? We get so much information from you on every video you produce. We lost a Utuber I watched and I’m not sure if you knew him. Brother Tom of Brother Toms misguided adventures. He passed in hospital after three cardiac arrests. I miss him so much cause I feel you Utubers are family. Take care Bex. F&T ❤️BT❤️ ❤️BC-H❤️. Cheers!!!
Yes i lost a metal detectorist I watched for 2, almost 3 yrs her husband kept her vids on! She died suddenly, very sad, I miss her!!
@@VoklstWestie sorry to hear that.
Thanks for another interesting and informative video...
Thank you 👍
Wow!Just wow!
Great!! thanks Bex.
Enjoyed your video thanks for sharing.
I love your videos! Great Stuff!!!
Wow so awesome Bex. 👍🏻❤️
Majestic !!!!! Hopefully no one is cutting those trees…….ever!
Thanks for sharing! 🌲
👍❤️😀
Awesome video out your videos I’ve gotten really good I have not watched you in a while very impressed
Great video thank you!
Wow! xx
Those holes remind me; of what we use to make Chile; it’s called mol/ ca/je/te.... Spanish word...
And to think that there are some people who would cut down these giants .
Thanks for the video. Both Kings Canyon and Sequoia National parks are on my bucket list. The month of May looks like the time to go, not to hot or cold. We travel with a dog. Can dogs go on the paved trails around the grove?
While dogs are allowed in the campgrounds, they are not permitted on trails.
Bud is correct. Dogs are only allowed in the campgrounds and parking lots.
❤️
You mentioned the trees were older than Jesus. Thought you would enjoy this poem by a Poet named William Stafford.
A poem by William Stafford
B.C.
The seed that met water spoke a little name.
(Great Sunflowers were lording the air that day,
This was before Jesus, before Rome, that other air
Was readying our hundreds of years to say things
That rain has beat down on over broken stones
And heaped behind us in many slag heaps.)
Quiet in the earth a drop of water came,
And the little seed spoke: “Sequoia is my name. “
👍👍❤️❤️
😊👍👍
You went past the barrier which damages the roots of the tree. As a native to the area I wish you would respect our land and either respect the land or take your tourism elsewhere.
